hello, i'm sara donchey because he stepped outside tonight, you know this, it is a chilly one out there. and now, rain is on the way. darren, will the morning commute be a washout? >> it will. it will have rain on it, sarah. in one sense, yes. in the other sense, it's not going to be torrential downpour is. as we look at first alerted doppler, we are deducting lightning over the sierra, but it is our rain out here which does not show up. what's the timeframe on that. that is like a clock a.m. we started to notice some fairly light rain at that point but it becomes more impressive into the later hours of the commute. here is 6:00 again, then going into 7:00 and 8:00 hours. this is the kind of rain that washes across most of the bay between like 5:00 a.m. and noon. widespread study showers. a good way to get perspective on this, how much rain is that if we just look at that window, like, the morning commute. let's pause right there and put some rainfall totals on just that window. 5:00 a.m.

through noon. i would not call that a washout, but you know, it's enough that the streets will get wet and windshield wipers will be going. after that rain passes, we enter this phase, these are coming through in the form of isolated thunderstorms. you can actually pick up the rotation, there. that is the center of this whole system and it will pass right over the bay. when we get into the middle of a system like that, right in the center of rotation, your odds rise for thunderstorms. we will look at that in more detail in the complete forecast, plus, morning lows on friday and saturday after cold air comes in from this are pretty impressive. for now, back to you. >> thank you. a's fans are used to curveballs, but the possibility that the team could bolt for sacramento before relocating to vegas is more like a fastball to the head. tori apodaca explains. >> reporter: speculation spiraling over a major move for a major-league baseball team. >> with the efflux front office and how they operate, it might get delayed again, like they have delayed every

standards? right now, between stadium seats and grass, sutter health can fit about 14,600 fans. the oakland a's coliseum if it's 63,000 fans. but, less than 11,000 fans showed up to a's home games on average last season. >> is there a place for them to get ready, green rooms, transportation, workout rooms? >> reporter: city leaders at sutter health park, refusing to comment on the renovations, that many speculate mlb and the players associations would require. >> if the capital city of california. so it would be good to have a major-league baseball team here. >> reporter: removed from the coliseum to the capital. which city will strike out? still up to the scene. >> the story has been all over the place. yesterday the a's said they were still far apart on a lease extension, very far apart, it sounds like. 2025 mlb schedule is slated to, the summer, meaning time is ticking

for the a's to pick up a place to play. >> the have got to hurry up, here. lee has made it clear they want is done by the summer. consider this. if they go, this is where the river cats play. i'm sure the giants will have an opinion as to hey, do we want another team coming into our facility ? it only holds 14,000, and the president of the river cats said, this is not fit to be a major-league baseball stadium. there are already players on record asking what we do about the clubhouse, the training rooms, the batting cages. to compare to our jobs, we start in really low markets piquancy come to a bigger market, you don't want to go back to smaller markets. these major-league players don't want to go back to the minors for three years. this is going to impact the a's, but i think we are past the a's caring about what talent they bring in. >> that is an interesting statement to make about the baseball team . >> is where we are at. >> a's fans, we will see how they react . we will be

covering all of that. >> is going to be interesting but i feel bad for a's fans began to put that out there, if you are a diehard oakland a's fan, it is tough for you right now. >> i think it is the toughest place to be a fan anywhere, in any sport. matt, thank you so much for tonight, taiwan is reeling from that 7.4 earthquake that sent buildings tumbling to the ground, killing at least nine people and injuring more than 1000 others . this is what is left behind one apartment building. you can see right through the windows into the rooms because crews are working to demolish it. it is a mess of twisted metal and splintered wood. at least 100 buildings were damaged in the quake, some of them, shaken right off their foundations. and then, there is the matter of freeing dozens of mineworkers trapped in a rock quarry. the rock fall blocked their exit routes and right now, 70 people are stuck. a drone flew over, and caught some of the workers waiting for help. the aftershocks keep coming. more than 40 of them, magnitude 4 or higher, have struck taiwan's coast,

including a 6.4 magnitude quake . the island could see aftershocks as high as magnitude 7 until the end of the week. so, the danger is not over, there. at this. the quake turned this man's swimming pool into a wave pool. might as well have taken a dip in the north sea. and on the topic of pools, pool water came pouring down from the skyscraper when the quake hit as the building was shaking back and forth. back in the bay area, the race for mayor in san francisco it was already crowded, no doubt about it. tonight, we have learned another high-profile politician once litters to give him the job. supervisor eric peskin told us he is running for mayor after months of speculation, he is excited to make his formal announcement at a rally in time chinatown this weekend. like we said, there are already a few people trying to unseat maryland and read. he is running against his fellow supervisor, there is also mark farrell, and daniel lurie, heir to the levi strauss fortune.

, the times have you heard that every vote counts? a congressional race in the south bay is proving that to be true. one county clerk says he has never seen an election like this before. the latest count for district 16, spanning san mateo and santa clara counties shows a deadlocked race between evan lowe and joe samiti and. the two are tied for second place but as of right now, they have exactly the same number of votes. for san jose mayor sam accardo is the front runner in the district 16 race, he has locked up the spot in the run-up runoff, the question is who he will be running against. >> there will be a three-way race for the congressional seat in the november election. >> reporter: both counties will issue official results by 5:00 pm and the secretary of state has until april 12 to certify.

candidates will have a chance to challenge those results. struck across the bay in antioch, easter weekend was anything but calm and peaceful. instead, it was all tires burning out with smoke in the air, lasers even, this sideshow brought in hundreds of people, before police could break it up. katie nielsen spoke with the mayor about how the city plans to crack down. >> that is really common. >> reporter: antioch resident jenna stone is pointing at the tire marks at the intersection of loan freeway and golf course road, a remnant from this past weekend sideshow popping up late saturday night. dozens of cars were doing high-speed donuts and spins, with hundreds of spectators cheering on the drivers. >> you can hear there's late at night, and you distinctly know what it is, because you can hear the screeching, the rubber burning sound. >> reporter: she says, the answer to the problem is simple. >> prosecute. get their information. have license plates. they have the numbers , it is not hard to find these people that are doing these things over and over again.

>> reporter: according to antioch mayor thorpe, that is exactly what they're going to do. during this past weekend sideshow, antioch police used drones together information about participants and spectators. >> there will be some people disappointed later, in a few weeks, because they will readily be cited and in some instances, there will be parents whose cars are towed. >> reporter: the mayor says the illegal gatherings are dangerous and the best approach is to stop them before they start, by installing physical barriers at intersections, where sideshows often happen, and also passing ordinance which would allow the police department to go after the organizers. >> the residents here deserve to live in peace. with any punks like this showing up at our doorstep disturbing the peace, and the sideshows are dangerous. we have had people killed here in antioch at sideshows. >> reporter: tougher crackdowns is what residents like jenna st. need to happen, because the issue continues to get worse. >> more and more lately, you

see this circle burnouts at every four-way stop, you know, everywhere you go. >> reporter: the city ordinance to prosecute organizers will be brought up at a council meeting in may. people convicted under the measure could face up to six months in jail or a $1000 fine. twisters cripple homes like dollhouses, crushing cars and snapping trees. the trail of destruction left behind across multiple states . a loud blast at a northbay middle school campuses and students running. >> she said she saw kids running, there were some kids that did try to leave campus. >> the felony charges to students are facing tonight. we know hockey is an aggressive sport, but an all out brawl as soon as the game starts? matt lively breaks down this insane replay.

>> reporter: police say the firework was heavy duty. they compared it to commercial grade explosive devices like an and 1000. the students were arrested for multiple felonies including possession of an excessive device and vandalism. this time of year, the bay area contends with wet weather and wind. in other parts of the country, this is the time of year for severe, life-threatening storms but that has certainly been the case after a storm left a trail of destruction from georgia to illinois. dave is in tennessee tonight, where people pick up the pieces. >> reporter: this is what the inside of an ef one tornado looks like. ethan williams dash cam captured the moment when high winds spun his car around and flipped over another vehicle. his two children were in the car. >> my kids had their hands tucked on my center console, and i was leaned over on top of them, covering down with my foot on the brake. >> reporter: from indiana to kentucky -- >> we have cars flipped over, what a mess.

superhero. >> a popular tourist destination is a ghost town in monterey county as a heavily damaged highway 1 is closed once again. chb had been shuttling people back and forth across the stretch of the highway that crumbled near exert. now they cannot even do that safely. residents who haven't evacuated have to hunker down, now. the general manager at a local hotel say they are helping people choosing to stay and helping people who have to stay for work. >> we are working with highway patrol. i am dealing with that. and essential workers, travelers, teachers, any other community needs to has been. then when the general public comes back, we are ready for that. >> reporter: chp will resume escorts on saturday. rainy weather is putting a damper on the comeback but they have been on a three-month hiatus. organizers are postponing the return because of the weather. the event is outdoors,

organizers say the arraignments are tough for food and retail vendors to operate. they say they are working to make it happen next friday, but if not, they plan to pick it back up in may. i think those are not the only people who are going to have plans dampened due to the weather for the next couple of days, right? >> it is such a busy forecast coming our way, sarah. right now, the virtual set looks really busy. i'm spotlighting two extremes of what is coming. getting rid of those for now, we will come back to them because they do stand out. we are going to the mid-30s in the northbay. by friday morning. i want to start out on this busy image, it was shared today by the national weather service. a lot of fine print is on here, it is too much to try to cram in like this, where you are trying to pick out the details but i just wanted to see the picture. sent out a picture of pea-sized hail. over the next two days, probably one of our best opportunities to see thunderstorms that are able to produce small hail like that. from this particular system ,

so in addition to cold temperatures, it is the isolated thunderstorms that show up through thursday afternoon and evening, and then maybe even on friday, which might steal some of the headlines, here. we will take up that story in the forecast. at noon, tomorrow, as we looked at the thursday morning commute in the last visit. if you missed that it will rain, widespread, about 3/10 of an inch of rain from 5:00 a.m.. plan on wet roads for the morning commute. it is after that when we get into the morning afternoon, things get more interesting. right here, we will keep it from this point at 2:00 in the afternoon. you will see a center of rotation. it is subtle right there, but it comes right ever the day, that is the center of the storm the center of the area of low pressure coming right overhead. over the middle of these things that is usually where the instability is, the most energy to develop isolated

thunderstorms, the kinds of cells that can deliver small hail, lightning, thunder, brief down pours. if you look at the map, one of these little cells developed, it will be for localized parts of the bay. most of us will not experience this, but we all equally have a 20% chance that it happens over your part of the bay tomorrow. watch what happens into the afternoon. not that it happened exactly of the santa cruz mountains at exactly 8:30 tomorrow night, but watch that particular cell, because it is not just that you get a potential thunderstorm, there, is that ms. east and moves over matt hamilton, then you can see the snow show up so now, we are also talking about low elevation snow amma down to about 2500 feet. matt hamilton stands a chance to get a light dusting of snow in this scenario. and it makes sense, the most likely timeframe to see some snow developing over the mountains is when you get some particularly strong cells , because those are pulling down colder air from higher in

the atmosphere. they are forcefully bringing it down to lower elevations and lower the cell level. it will be completed today tomorrow. more time when you're not getting rained on from thursday afternoon through friday, then when you are. but, when these isolated cells come through, you could get a brief little show, and that small hail is what you get through thunderstorms, and there is often confusion about what all the stuff is, because we don't get it all that much. just wanted you to see that picture from the national weather service and give you a heads up. this whole thing is taken into account. birthday tomorrow morning commute rain and the scattered showers, and you can see what it looks like, we pick up maybe half an inch of rain. where the potential is the thunder storms on thursday and friday. look at the cold air for this system. let's take a moment going back now, you can see how the cold air really does fill in over the bay. we

will bring back the same numbers, this is not tomorrow morning. tomorrow morning will be warmer than this but still cold tomorrow morning, but the focus will be on the rain. i just wanted you to see the extreme cold numbers and we probably won't break records when we do this but i was checking record for santa rosa, you are going to 35 on friday. you have been colder than that for friday but a couple of degrees. 10 to 12 degrees below average, but we are not necessarily breaking records when we do this. the other item to discuss is on the other side of the state, after we get our light snow, here, perhaps on mt. hamilton, or in the northbay with the snow level down to 2500 feet, not bigger cumulation's, but it is a dusting of snow relatively low and you bet it will be snow in the sierra. snow level there down to 3000 feet, thursday and friday, we get about a foot of snow up on donner pass and that will slow down the drive,

so just be aware, if you know anybody who has to travel in the sierra thursday or friday there will be chains and delays. in the seven day forecast, we know about our rain and daytime highs in the mid 50s but thankfully for the weekend, no rain. saturday and sunday you don't have to worry about it and look at what is coming next week. we are going to be back near 80 degrees by wednesday. matt, over to you. giants looking to avoid this week to the dodgers down in los angeles. giants fans might be feeling like these fellas on the ice. i will explain the

we spent time talking about the a's, and gosh, all of the things the fans have gone through with that team. let's shift focus to the giants. what we have ahead of us. >> yes. i have some good news and some bad news to start us off. >> oh, okay. >> up there with the good news1st. blake snell , in a simulated game today, could return next week . bad news, they had to face the dodgers again, giants enter this one on a three-game losing streak. kyle harrison there for san francisco. he had some early struggles. all right, in the third, will smith finds some space, and ohtani scores. now, we pick it up, it is 2-1. teoscar hernandez hits one into the outfield, that will bring home will smith, that makes it 3-1, and then one inning later, it's like it never stops with this lineup.

miguel rojas, look at how quickly this one gets out of the park. smokes one, at least 4-1, six hits and four earned runs. site giants didn't want to see, shohei ohtani hits his first home run of the season, his first as a dodger, that means it will play on loop the rest of his career. deep shot to the right field, he scored two of the dodgers five runs tonight. that was enough for l.a. to complete this week. this one will make giants fans happier. jorge soler got his first home run as a giant, 452 foot bomb . silverlining to a bad opening trip to l.a. maybe he found his swing, that is what would be important. giants are off tomorrow before the home opener against san diego on friday. the a's announcers, cavanagh and prynne giving the fans gifts from the booth. ross stripling against boston, former giants struck after the

three allowed, just one run in seven innings. the a's had runners at the corners, come on, is, you can do it. kenley jansen gets ryan noda going down swimming. oakland finishes the homestand 1-6. okay, hockey is a brutal sport, no doubt about it. now, a lot of people have one major issue with the game, and it is the fighting that goes down. now, i say, you should be banned if you don't want the fighting to go down. we are talking about grown men dropping the gloves and brawling on the ice as they wear skates, something beautiful about it. that was the case on wednesday night. rangers, devils, rivals at heart. it did not take long to break the ice. the puck drops, and here we go. all 10 skaters. all 10, went at it. this dates back to earlier in march, the two teams played and rangers ricky, matt randy knocked out a player with a high elbow. of course they were heated. look

at these guys in the penalty box. pretty crowded. in total, eight players ejected, less than two seconds into the game. eight players, two seconds. players and coaches from both claimed they had no idea this was going to happen. it was simply a spur of the moment kind of thing, and , sarah donchey, i would argue that is why hockey absolutely rules. >> some people are like that. what was so funny about it, or interesting, i guess, it becomes a different sport and it is a bit like a ballet. i think we should be playing dainty classical music underneath it. >> as they are just absolutely grabbing each other by the jersey, i love it. and for it to happen as the puck drops, crazy. the aerial shot is nuts, because you just see all corners of the ice, surrounded by players. >> matt, we look forward to seeing that on sunday. there is a very dirty mystery swirling around a

i was like shaking you know, i was so scared. when i first reached out to jacoby and meyers. i didn't know if i had a case or not. as soon as i got a hold of my attorney, she was very, very nice, very kind. because of jacoby and meyers, i don't have that pressure to worry about a medical bill or things like that. if i know of any accident, i'm like, call jacoby and meyers, they'll help you. ♪♪ ♪ you've got a friend in me ♪ ♪♪ ♪ you've got a friend in me ♪ ♪♪ ♪ you just remember what your old pal said ♪ ♪ boy, you've got a friend in me ♪ ♪♪ it's a celebration of friendship & beyond. from the new parade to together forever - a new nighttime spectacular fireworks show.

>> here's the thing, the sheriff's office is trying to figure out whether this is a prank , or if it is someone who needs a little help, apparently they are offering, they just want someone to come forward so that they can help them. find a better option. >> i'm not sure what the woman was in favor of. >> is a riot. she thinks it's fun. >> i stand more with the guy, i think. >> yeah >> let's just hope they get the help that they need. >> gross. what a way to end the night. i like when we do the food stories better. i would rather leave hungry the nauseous. >> well, we should just put that in the tagline of the show. >> thank you, anyway, for watching, even if you are a little nauseous. the late show with stephen colbert is coming up next. >> leaving them hungry, not nauseous. - lift the clouds off of... - virtual weather, only on kpix and pix+.
